Slocan Valley Art and Garden Tour 2006 |
|
|
|
There are so many beautiful gardens in the Slocan Valley that
showing all of them here could be difficult, almost impossible.
Instead, I decided to show just one garden to our visitors in
Canada and around the world, leaving to your imagination how the
other gardens may look like. |
|
Featured garden - Artist's Garden
- Rabia's |
| Country garden |
| Pictures taken in July, 2006 |
| Walking gently on the Earth |
|
First, please meet Rabia herself at her leisure time at her beautiful
property in Appledale, in the Slocan Valley, in the Kootenay region of British
Columbia, Canada. The Slocan river flows just behind the trees in the middle
of the picture. |
 |
| When Rabia is busy she works as an artist and as a gardener.
Her garden is filled not only with plants but also with her art. |

Above you can see part of Rabia's flower and vegetable gardens, the view from her patio. |
Here is one of Rabia's latest artistic creations - a "Dancing
Girl". The sculpture is 9 feet tall. Sorry, it is already sold. |
View of Rabia's house with a big flower bed at front of it. |
More of Rabia's art - a beautiful mosaic chair. |
|

| Everything in Rabia's surroundings is the expression of her artistic personality |
